. >> nbc's michelles could inski is in london for us. folks team to be a tad excited about this. >> yeah, it's great news. and also difficult news for kate since she's been feeling so poorly. this morning the palace is trying to maintain privacy surrounding this while she's still in the hospital suffering from very severe morning sickness. the palace did say this is very early in the pregnancy. it's not yet three months. but will not be giving daily updates on her condition. the british press is reporting she's resting, doing okay and has had to be on a drip after being sick for several days. and also allegedly the queen herself did not know about the pregnancy until yesterday when the young couple drove themselves to the hospital. reportedly they were waiting to tell the family at christmas time. certainly this is not the way the palace would have liked ideally to deliver this news. it is very exciting. it's being met with joy and congratulations from around the world. lynn? >> mimichelle, thank you so muc. >>> now a look at your nation
